Din Søte Forening å Smake from Eleanor Clare on Vimeo.

Devised and performed by Eleanor Clare. Commissioned by BLOKK presentere, Torvsalen, Gamle Bergen, 2016. 

Lyrics and melody in the final section have been extracted from 'Jesus din søte forening å smake', Allendorf 1712/Hygrom 1740. English translation of lyrics sung: "your sweet union to taste/is longed for and needed with heart and with mind/tear me from all that holds me back/draw me to you, my beginning, inside/show me with clarity/my powerlessness and struggle/show me the abyss of corruption within me/that its nature could turn to the death/the spirit alone must live for you.
